“………..as sharply as these flavours descend, so too do they depart. This beer’s vivacity is matched effortlessly by a dry, bitter finish, and an effortlessly drinkable character. Which, at only 3.8% can, on occasion, seem to rapidly evaporate from your glass between sips. Due to its strength it’s arguably best suited to cask dispense—the gentle carbonation lending (______) a little more body. However, if you do take my advice (which you should) and pair it with some local oysters, the boost of effervescence provided by the keg version will enhance both the sweetness and salinity of every bite. Such is it’s quality, (______) is a beer that works beautifully, regardless of how it is served……….”

The Great British pub is recognised around the world. It is something that cannot be replicated in any other country. Of course, many places serve beer, wine, spirits and food in different countries, but there is nothing like our pub. In France they have bistros, brasseries and a coffee culture. In Spain they have tapas and pintxos bars. In Italy, you have trattorias and pizzerias and in Greece, you have wonderful tavernas. All of these places have one common goal and that is serving great drinks and simple food with a warm welcome to a community. However, the one thing about the British pub that separates us, is real ale. Our brewing heritage varies from region to region. The passion and the heart and soul that goes into brewing is equal to the top wine makers, distillers, cheese makers, bakers, artisan chocolatiers or any other craft led hospitality producer. It is something we should be very proud of.

THE BEER BOX YOU HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR !
AVAILABLE FOR PRE-ORDER NOW!
As part of CAMRA’s 50th anniversary celebrations we scoured the UK for its beer experts (luckily as a nation we have a few!) and asked them what their favourite UK beers were by style. The style list they were given is the newly updated CAMRA beer styles which you can find here: CAMRA BEER STYLES
Not an easy decision for anyone to make, but we were very lucky that our friends in the beer industry – be that brewer, influencer, journalist, author or fermenter – were able to whittle down the incredible beers available in the UK to one for each beer style. The contents of the Good Beer Box will feature ONLY the beers that received the most nominations.
